Normally, I'm not one to make a blog related to a musing like this. I feel that they either come out too forced from me, or th...

On monday, the guys over on the GamersFirst Developers Blog updated with a good bundle of information about their immediate plans for the future of APB:Reloaded. This comes with the big announcement that the game will be en...

About a month ago, our very own amazing Dtoid community member Meteorscrap held a contest. Well, I ended up winning it, and today(ok, this past friday for actually) a box happened upon my doorstep that I would eventually lear...

It's been a couple of months now since GamersFirst revived the quick to rise, quick to die, Cops vs. Robbers MMO Sandbox Shooter APB: All Points Bulletin, and tossed that fragile little IP into the wilds of a closed beta te...

After the last time I blogged about APB:Reloaded, I promised myself that I wouldn't blog about APB:Reloaded again until they announced the date of the opening of the open beta, considering that they say that's the next step a...

APB: Reloaded is now in the third week of closed beta testing. Along that way, the fine folks on the dev team have been consistently updating the public APB:Reloaded Developer Blog(as well as Facebook and Twitter) to keep peo...

Last week I wrote about the new APB:Reloaded beta starting up. Well, it's one week later, and they let 10,000 people in with the first wave. First concession was letting in players what had participated somehow with the orig...

This past sunday, members of the APB: Reloaded team made an update post on the APB: Reloaded Developers Blog detailing the first release candidate for the new game, which would be the Closed Beta candidate as well.

I had the random urge earlier today to pop in my copy of MGS4, what came with a free version of MGO on the same disk when I bought it, and play a little bit of MGO. Much to my surprise... the game told me that I needed to dow...

Ah yes, it's one of those rare times that I've decided to post something. You know what that means: something new happened with Metal Gear Online. Actually, that something happened about a week ago with last week's maintenanc...

Shin Megami Tensei was something I've always wanted to jump into for the longest time. I first heard about Nocturne(a buddy of mine had a copy) and the Digital Devil Sagas. Devil Summoner vs. The Soulless Army was the first o...

Last night(this morning depending on your time zone) Konami dropped their newest expansion for Metal Gear Online in the form of the version 1.30 patch. Unfortunately for me, I don't have my PS3 with me, but luckily, there was...

Last week Konami announced that they would be making a third expansion to the hugely popular(in Japan, mildly popular over here) Metal Gear Online. Well, the trailer for the expansion came out yesterday showing off some of th...

Earlier today(or maybe just a little while ago depending on where you live), the MGO servers were taken down for maintenance. When they came back up, we got a new update. A BIG new update.
Here's a link to the...

Yesterday I reported that Japan would be getting MEME on the 25th in Japan, but it would go on pre-sale starting the 18th. Well, now it's confirmed in America too. The two items(MEME standalone, and the GENE/MEME bundle) are ...

Some interesting information comes about from this though. The GENE expansion plus(the one with the extra (character slot) will be discontinued at the time of MEME's release. Replacing it will be a MEME+GENE bu...

Around mid-day today(Japan time), Konami held the MGO world tournament live at TGS.
There was a live stream on the MGO web site, but considering the time zone difference,
here in the states, it was shown after midnight.

More or less, my Newer Computer (That I loathe), is unable to connect to the Internet, due to a mistake on my part. This means I have two options for net access; The Wii, and my Older Computer.

As of the moment I'm blogging, the US MGO servers are officially down for maintenance. This means two things. First, that we are finally going to get the GENE expansion pack that the rest of the world(Japan and parts of Europ...

Now, I'm in an area with VERY few Arcades, or Arcade-like Areas. However, I, like many of my fellow Dtiod-ers, enjoy the games. It was in a Jillians that I found an amazing game; Megaman: The Power Battle, one of my favorites...

Yeah, I lack the game and a PS3, so I can't join in on the many Snakegasms. That said, I'll actually have played a MGS game for more than 10 minutes as of Saturday, thanks to the Essential Collection. It's hard for me to admi...

Well, time for my first Monthly Musing. Hopefully, it'll be good.
Anyway, If you read the last post I made, I mentioned that I was born in '96, and that my first "true" gaming console was the Gamecube. Which more or less mea...
